Delicious low-cal soup. You may want to add some meat and I love it with chicken sausages (sliced) and parmesan cheese sprinkled on top. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil |
8 ounces mushrooms |
1 onion, diced |
5 garlic cloves, minced |
1 whole red pepper, seeded and diced |
6 cups water or 6 cups vegetable broth |
1/2 cup pearl barley |
1/4 cup wild rice or 1/4 cup brown rice |
2 teaspoons dijon mustard |
1 tablespoon dried parsley |
1 teaspoon dried thyme |
1 teaspoon salt (or 1/4 tsp if salted broth is used) |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
Directions:
1. Heat oil in large saucepan. Add mushrooms, onion, bell pepper and garlic. Cook stirring 8 - 10 minutes over medium heat. Add water or broth, barley, wild rice, mustard and seasonings. Bring to a simmer. Cook uncovered for 50 minutes before serving. Ladle into bowls, serve with warm dark bread or fesh bagels.
